ALI Launches Vermosa, a modern suburban community in the south

Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) marked another milestone as it introduced Vermosa, its 3rd largest masterplanned estate in the country to date.

Considered as another growth center in the South, covering the districts of Dasmariñas and Imus in Cavite, ALI sees Vermosa as a chance to increase business activity that could create more jobs for more people. “We view this as way of becoming a strong partner of Cavite – one of the country’s most industrialized and fastest growing provinces,” said ALI President and CEO Bernard Vincent O. Dy. “Five years from now and even beyond, we believe Vermosa will thrive and offer the people of Cavite new options for an enhanced quality of life,” he added.

Vermosa is a 700-hectare integrated mixed-use development that is positioned to take advantage of robust prospects and stimulate growth in Metro South. Envisioned to be a modern suburban community, it will offer a balanced mix of various mixed-use components – a wide range of residential and retail options, offices, institutional developments, and entertainment centers, all integrated by garden zones, parks and civic spaces that encourage social interaction.

Vermosa will be highly accessible with the newly opened four-kilometer Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway (MCX), which connects Daanghari to South Luzon Expressway and shortens travel time to Cavite by 30 percent, making Vermosa 55 minutes away from Makati during peak hours. It will also be few minutes away from Manila with the upcoming Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX).

Apart from its proximity and accessibility, another distinct feature of Vermosa will be the Vermosa Sports and Lifestyle Complex (VSLC), to further ALI’s objective of enriching more lives by integrating a healthy and active lifestyle with everyday living.

VSLC will be the first of its kind in the country and will primarily cater to triathlon enthusiasts and other related sports such as marathon, swimming, and cycling. It will have an Olympic-size pool, a 400-meter track and field, and the most advanced and complete sports science laboratory in the country. It will also have the first purpose-built mountain bike skills track in the Philippines and a motocross track designed by one of the country’s top motocross athlete, Glenn Aguilar. And to complete its health and lifestyle amenities, Vermosa will have a 10,000-square meter retail center that will feature various sports shops as well as a wide array of healthy dining options. All these amenities will be managed by industry professionals and will be open to the public.

Amaia Land celebrates 5th year of providing quality homes to more Filipinos

Aiming to help hardworking Filipino families have a house they can call their own, Amaia Land continues making those dreams come true as the company celebrates its 5th year in the industry.

Amaia was borne out of the vision of its mother company, Ayala Land (ALI), to broaden its residential product line to cater to the wider Philippine population. In 2010, this came into fruition with the incorporation of Amaia Land and its subsequent launch of the first Amaia Scapes economic housing project, thereby reinforcing ALI’s thrust of “enhancing land, enriching lives for more people.”

The company’s maiden project, Amaia Scapes Laguna established Amaia as a competitive brand in the real estate industry. Amaia’s “Scapes” house-and-lot product line, which now consists of 16 communities, has revolutionized the economic housing segment. Some features that homeowners love about the community are its cluster type development, patio greens and full complement of shared amenities. Meanwhile, housing units are sought after for their attractive facades, modern design and efficient space planning.

In 2011, Amaia launched its condominium product lines: the mid-rise Amaia “Steps” and high-rise Amaia “Skies”. Amaia Steps now boasts a total of nine communities. These homes are ideal for those who aspire for bigger living spaces within city limits. Meanwhile, there are now four Amaia Skies developments, which offer private abodes for urban dwellers and on-the-go working individuals desiring a balanced work-play lifestyle.

Last year, Amaia introduced Amaia “Series”, a pure townhouse development designed for families with growing need for space, and Amaia “Square”, shop houses made for entrepreneurs who want their home and store in one convenient address.

So far, Amaia has served over 12,000 families across the country. The brand is present in key locations in North Luzon (Bulacan, Pampanga, Tarlac, Urdaneta), Metro Manila (Quezon City, Paranaque, Manila, Caloocan, Pasig, Mandaluyong and soon Las Pinas), South Luzon (Laguna, Cavite, Batangas, Quezon and soon Bicol) and the Visayas (Bacolod, Cebu and soon Iloilo). This year, it will venture to CDO, Mindanao. Homes are made affordable by easy-on-the-pocket paying options such as cash, deferred, bank financing, Pag-ibig and in-house financing.

The company opened a significant numer of jobs for Filipinos including a 17,000-man sales force in 18 growth centers and sales offices nationwide. Its online followers has soared and includes over 500,000 facebook fans, propelling the brand’s dominance in the digital platform.

“Our fifth year anniversary marks Amaia’s success over the years and the company’s mission in the years to come,” says Amaia Land president Ricky Celis. “We will continue to contribute to nation building by serving thousands of families with quality yet affordable homes in more locations nationwide.”
